Promised...Reupholster Your Chair

I used the patten from this book to cover my chair...I didn't really follow the written instructions...but, some of you may find them helpful..so I included them...Good luck and show me what you got.

...The instructions are from this book...I purchased it from a discount bookstore for $4.99. It's full of great reupholstery projects for your home...It even has a pattern for making a canopy for your backyard...

go easy ladies...measure the widest parts of your chair...usually the back...and cut 10 pieces of fabric in that size...drape the fabric piece by piece over your chair...just like in the illustration and pin...remove and sew according to pins...hope that helps.

I'm passionate about designing a life that I love. My passion for interior and fashion design begin as a little girl...As a teenager I designed most of my clothes...I have a degree in Fashion Design from the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City...I have worked for some of the biggest fashion and architectural firms in New York City...Today you will find me designing spaces for private clients as well as being a mom to my 15 year old daughter who suffers from Sickle Cell Disease...While being a single mom to a special needs child requires most of my attention...I still make time to seek out creativity wherever I can...be it my sewing machine, at the flea market, thrifting...while traveling or just entertaining at home with my family and friends...I live in New York City...what more inspiration does a girl need...? Stop by often to see what's inspiring me on any given day.
